The Best Garlic Noodles | Crab Shack Style

Step 1

Bring a pot of water to a boil for the pasta. While waiting for the water to boil, peel and mince about 20 gloves of garlic.

Step 2

Combine the following ingredients in a bowl to make the noodle sauce:

Step 3

Cook pasta al dente, about 1 minute less than the package's recommendation

Step 4

Save ½ cup of the cooked pasta water then drain and rinse the cooked pasta under running water. Add about .5 tablespoon of Olive Oil to prevent the noodles from sticking together. *Typically I do not rinse my pasta, but I found that when the pasta is not rinsed for these garlic noodles, it tends to clump together*

Step 5

Heat a pan to medium/Medium low and add remaining 3 tablespoon Olive oil and minced garlic. Cook the garlic about 5 minutes until fully cooked.

Step 6

Add butter, and noodle sauce and bring to a simmer.

Step 7

Add cooked pasta, and mix together with the sauce and top off with parmesan.

Step 8

If the noodles are sticking together a bit, add 1 tablespoon of the reserved pasta water until desired consistency is achieved.

Step 9

Garnish with green onions and Enjoy!
